Hi Phil.
The reason I know the club was upstairs is that I used to go there every Tuesday. Of course, I realise that this isn't a verifiable source, and I can't swear the club wasn't in the basement at some other time.
The Bruce Dunnet article seems a good idea, but I'm very busy at the moment. I will do it when I have time if no one has beaten me to it. Paul Magnussen ( talk) 15:58, 9 October 2009 (UTC)

For your work on researching notability for A Lesson of Belorussian I am honored to award this barnstar. Some editors have better google-fu ability than others.... and you shine in that category. MichaelQSchmidt ( talk) 21:30, 9 October 2009 (UTC) |
Again, your thoughts on the appropriateness of adding Dewey Decimal and/or Library of Congress Classification fields would be appreciated. I'm going to make the {{ editprotected}} request relatively soon, so if you have any objections or concerns, now would be a great time to bring them up for discussion. -- Cybercobra (talk) 04:34, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

I saw your comment here. I prodded this mainly to see if the original editor would fix it (he'd already done a better draft of the article previously), but no luck; so I've re-written it myself. Swanny18 ( talk) 21:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
I know it seems redundant, but more than one person had commented that they wished that it had a regular search function! I think there is enough of a UI issue that it justifies the redundancy. If anything, I would rather remove the search link that was there originally; the term itself, and keep the explicit search link. Would you like me to do that?

You rather forcefully questioned my prod on this article - I wasn't questioning the author, I was questioning the need for a standalone article, which was scant, and had no references. Thedarxide ( talk) 08:23, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

I agree with you as to the notability of the person, but I wouldn't trust a Google Books search to verify whether a book contains reference to an individual or not, or at least not with a book that isn't viewable. In my experience Book Search is highly inaccurate unless the entire book is viewable. In this instance, it only finds three sentences that contain "Carter" and three that contain "Reagan", which to me seems unrealistic given that it's a 200-some page book largely about the Carter and Reagan presidencies. -- NellieBly ( talk) 01:02, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
Hello--
I do apologize that I hadn't seen the earlier PROD. If I wanted to be really picky I could say it was best to start there again since the article has shrunk so much since, but since you took it off that hardly matters anyway :) ...Anyway, thanks for adding that bit of info and sourcing. As-is now I can't see anything wrong with it as a stub. Thank you for keeping up my accidental current streak of people coming forward to help a pages just a little even after my head gets cloudy on it... much better result this way. Cheers~ ♪ daTheisen (talk) 05:33, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
I have simply been trying to help out. I apologize for my mistakes but they are inevitable since I'm new.

Hi, the green eyed, so..what do you think should be done to improve the article? Off2riorob ( talk) 21:40, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
The talk page I deleted said "can someone change the title of this article so it is capitalized properly?"
This had been done.
Therefore, it had been dealt with, and the page was no longer necessary. DS ( talk) 20:02, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

I have nominated Sambunot, an article that you have edited, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sambunot (2nd nomination). Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

You must be aware that notorious WP Admin Ragib is attacking many articles related to Bangladesh himself as well as with his socks in a mission to delete those for degrading reputation of the country. Now he attacked http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mustapha_Khalid with his infamous WP knowledge, just for your information.-- Phil997 ( talk) 03:40, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
An editor has nominated Kalyan Dass Jain, an article which you have created or worked on, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also " What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kalyan Dass Jain and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. -- Eastmain ( talk) 05:43, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Wanted to let you know, per your improvements, I've withdrawn and closed the discussion as non-admin close, withdrawn by nominator with no non-dissenting opinions given. I hope you don't hold it against me too much for this all, but I am honestly relieved if I can early close as keep any XfDs I open. It means people care about the article and will watch it, and only 1 in 5 AfDs I've opened had no response at the request for improvements and end admin close was delete. 2 were speedy keep per me upon improvements, other 2 were keep but weren't eligible for non-admin close since there were dissenting opinions (even 1 is too many, I was told). As odd as it sounds, it seems articles only seem to get attention they might need after an AfD... no one should CSD things like that, PRODs can always be removed, so the AfD pulls more information out of the woodwork. In this case I wasn't at all qualified to make improvements myself between the topic and self-administrated PoV restrictions based on a contributor to that article I indirectly ended up creating evidence against that eventually resulted in a block.
Thanks for your time on this, and being more proof that most anything can be resolved without possible blunt end results or the need to run even 1 full tier of dispute resolutions. :) Cheers~ ♪

Please look up the diference between "original research" and "stuff being written about it". The fact that somebody has written about nursing in Pakistan does not make comments like "Pakistan nursing council always acts responsibly and professionally wherever the matter of health and medicine occurs" and "Pakistan has really put on valuable efforts in establishing and organizing many professional nursing organizations" anything more than WP:OR at best and WP:BOLLOCKS at worst. Ironholds ( talk) 19:40, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
I saw that you endorsed the PROD on this. I can attest to the fact that "North Madras" is a term regularly used for certain parts of the city, as is "South Madras". The parts inbetween are the ones with no umbrella name. I haven't really found any sources for the actual structure of North Madras, but this shows some usage. Technically, it refers to the (old) industrial part of the city, but now of course, it's all one big mix. This definition doesn't have an exact overlap with the parliamentary constituency, but the overap is significant -- Madras North (Lok Sabha constituency). If I find something to actually show define the article I'll contest the PROD, but figured I'd alert you, in case you have some better luck. cheers. - Spaceman Spiff 00:58, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
I was just being a good doobie and doing some page patrolling -- didn't mean to get into a controversy. It does seem to me that 70+ articles (one genus, 70-odd species), each of which is only nine words with the same picture is a bit much. I understand creating stubs -- I do it a lot -- but these aren't stubs in any useful sense.
Anyway, I have no interest or expertise with which to follow this up. . . . . Jim . . . . Jameslwoodward ( talk • contribs) 16:13, 10 December 2009 (UTC) (Should you choose to respond, please do so here.)

Thanks for catching the real name of the Hotcha Trio. Every now and then I find an article with so few Google hits that I suspect its title is erroneous, but aside from the {{ hoax}} tag I know of no template or other mechanism to draw attention to the article. Is there a tag for a dispute/mistake in the title? Abductive ( reasoning) 04:13, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
